We wouldn't mind if u share the story. It will help others. Sorry about the wahala, It will end in praise this time, amen.

Well, we have been at this for the last two years. The first application was a visitor's visa in December 2015. I was a student at the time and they essentially rejected based on assets and other things. We did a second visitor's visa application in July 2016. At this point I had already graduated and working full time NOC A and got a provincial nomination. It still came back with a rejection saying something about my wife does not have ties or something like that.

We decided to hire a lawyer here in Canada. The lawyer explained that we should have been doing SOWP instead of visitor's visa but the VO could have still granted based on dual intent. So she helped us package a SOWP application by paper from here and mailed it to Nigeria in December 2016. Sometime between when the application was processed and all, my wife was interviewed for an American visitor's visa and was rejected because of previous rejections in Canada. We forgot to update this information in the background section of the SOWP application in December 2016. The application came back rejected in April 2016 stating incomplete background info.

This recent application essentially addressed the error in the background info as not an intent to misrepresent bla bla bla. Long story short, my biggest regret is not starting express entry soon enough. I was doing PNP PR and close to 10 months in now out of the estimated 16 months. I also started Express Entry in June, got ITA in July and AOR about a month ago. EE usually takes about 3.5-4 months based on the timeline of my colleagues here at work, so I am really counting on EE more than anything else.

Altogether, I would implore most folks that can start EE to start EE instead of SOWP. These people don't have sense especially when processing applications from Nigeria. I don't understand how the same profile that grants your PR cannot grant you visitor's visa or SOWP. PS. All of these things would have consumed $10k minimum.

I really pray everyone waiting for monday get approvals IJN. My husband applied 17th May and I was finally able to link his app online just last week. I got his refusal letter today dated yesterday and they had ticked employement prospect in country of residence, travel history (he had studied in UK and visited Italy once, so i'm not sure if they need him to visit the moon before they are satisfied with travel history) and they ticked he did not meet exemption for C41(I am on Postgrad openwork permit and working fulltime in a skilled job. We attached my employment contract stating my job duties, hours per week, salary and NOC code and also attached my payslip, so I don't know their problem).

He did not do medicals because he just got back from UK in May and they said he doesn't need one. This is the third refusal for OWP, the other two my husband applied while in Uk, in the notes they had stated his immigration status in UK, that he was on study permit bla bla bla which was why we decided he return to Nigeria to apply for it and now they came up with another story.....End of Rant

Anyway on the positive side, we got ITA for express entry last week, I had already filled out the forms and waiting to attach proof of medicals, my husband had called the medical centers in Lagos and they said they collect only passport as proof of ID, so good thing we got the decision yesterday so he can get his passport and go for the medicals and we can face express entry. IT IS WELL. Sorry for the long story

Thanks Veil1234. I wasn't even too bothered about the refusal because of the ITA. It's interesting when my husband was still in UK studying, I would apply for UK visit visa to go see him and within a week or two, my passport gets posted back with visa but turn the table around and CIC just comes up with useless reasons. I think looking at UK, Australia and Canada, it is mostly Canada that frustrates spouses of students/temp workers.

Hi dodoyemi,





She submitted 15th of MAY

It could mean a medical call. Tell her to just calm down and trust God. It will end in praise for us all in Jesus name, amen.

When did she submit her application? Seems they're now working on April applications.

Hi guys, we got this sms and update from vfs

Your processed passport is ready for collection , on 11/08/2017 at the Canada Visa Application Centre. To know more, please call VAC helpline number or visit VAC website.

Is this a positive response? My wife is freaking out.

Re: Canada Spouse Open Work Permit (sowp)timeline by Toluwaase(m): 2:53am On Aug 13, 2017
Please, my wife missed a call from Canada High Commission in Lagos. She called back, but the call entered voice mail. There is no update in her mail, no sms but we have not been able to link her application online. She applied for SOWP on 9th May.
Pls, what do you advise us to do?

Thanks and very insightful. You are already on PGWP, why will Oga apply for another work permit? From my knowledge ma. Both of you can't be working together except for the fact that now you have gotten an ITA which is a better option. May I ask how long have you been working? He would have applied since when you were still a student. Again hope his working and hope he submitted documents to show that also.

Hello Toluwaase,

First how did she know the call is from Canada High Commission? Did they leave a voicemail? If yes, they should have given her instruction on what to do or whom to call. If not, then how is she convinced that they are the one. Lastly, she should relax as they cannot make any nasty decision without sending her a letter should they need additional information. She should either track her application online for updated status if she have linked it online; keep checking her email for any mail from CIC, or watch out for their letter in the post. At the same time she should keep her phone close to her especially during the working hours in case they call back.

It will end in praise in Jesus name, amen.

Spouses of post graduate work permit (foreign worker) and study permit (international students) holders can apply for Open Work Permit
Re: Canada Spouse Open Work Permit (sowp)timeline by BE811APP: 1:46am On Aug 14, 2017
You answered d question very well..

Markab:
I will answer you to best of my knowledge. YES, you can apply as an accompanying spouse but you have to demonstrate having strong ties back home and justify why you decide to follow him convincingly. This can be explained in your letter to the visa officer.

You guys must also demonstrate a very strong financial strength to support your application. I know of someone going for PhD that got approved with his wife and children and in addition to the funding he received, he had a closing balance of 10 million in his account.

Alternatively, I would advice you let your hubby get his visa and once he's enrolled, you can apply to join him on open work permit, your chance of approval is very high with this method, I have not seen any spouse of a PhD student denied by going through this method

At the bolded.. not really true bcuz my kids 3 and 5 years respectively got study permits..

I think she will get a visitors visa now.. when the parents are renewing their visas in d next 2 years she could get a study permit.. bcuz she will be approaching the school age.

Markab:
Hi,

1. I don't understand why you applied for change in Name even though its not mendatory at all. Anyway, as long as you dont have changed name mentioned anywhere on docs, you dont need to declare it proactively, neither you need to change it in passport right now and apply for new passport.

2. Regardless of age, you need a travel document/passport even for one day old child. So definitely you will need passport for your baby.

3 yes, you will apply for a visitors visa (more than six months) for your daughter separately. That visitors, when accompanied with a valid student visa/work visa of parents can let her attend any eligible school for free of cost.

[/b]You wont need any study permit to get her education till she is 12.[b]

4. Passport and birth certificate is fine, dont need any additional doc

Congratulations on your ITA..

It not easy..

I have a friend here in Regina, SK. His wife applied 3 times dey kept rejecting her.. they also got ITA dis august after writing ITELS like 3 times..

Its well!!!

I "think" the C41 issue is because you have already started working and you are through with skol.. so they believe you dont need support from your husband since you are already working full-time.

sometimes if u have 3 months on ur study permit.. they feel u dont need a support from your spouse again..

Congratulations again on your ITA!!!

Remain Blessed!!!

Our immigration horror story continued. And yet again she was rejected for the fourth time. This time, there was no reason stated at all. There is no point reapplying anymore, we will just wait for the EE to kick in the next few months.

Hi Everyone, we submittted my husband SOWP application on April 10, 2017 and couldn't link it online or heard from CIC. I will be rounding up internship (1st progrm) this month while I resume for my 2nd program in september 2017.

My current study permit will expire in November 2017.
Pls do we need to update CIC with my new letter of enrollment (2nd program) since I havn't renew my study permit. Renewing study permit won't be ready till around December 2017.
Re: Canada Spouse Open Work Permit (sowp)timeline by dodoyemi: 3:42pm On Aug 14, 2017
She just got back from VFS and was refused.

Reason

Not satisfied that you meet the C14 exemption- which makes no sense


I did some research and found this

Spouses or common-law partners of skilled workers [C41]
Spouses or common-law partners of skilled people coming to Canada as foreign workers may themselves be authorized to work without first having an offer of employment. A dependent spouse is eligible to apply for an open work permit if the principal foreign worker

holds a work permit that is valid for a period of at least six months, or, if working under the authority of section R186 without a work permit, presents evidence that they will be working for a minimum of six months;
is employed in an occupation that falls within National Occupational Classification (NOC) skill levels 0, A or B (which generally include management and professional occupations and technical or skilled trades [see the NOC website]);
physically resides or plans to physically reside in Canada while working.



NOTE

I have a valid work permit that expires October 2018 so i still have a full year and one month. Note i applied in MAY
My occupation at the time of the application was maintenance service technician which is a NOC B and i explained in my SOP explaining my roles as an ATM technician. I attached my Employment confirmation letter which stated my role, how much i earn and how many hrs i work. I also included my pay slips...

Annoying.

You don't want to know. I am so livid right now. My wife's rejection letter had the same, only that they stated "Not satisfied that you qualify for OWP" without stating C41. I am convinced that these guys in Lagos/Accra are either retarded, working with a quota or outrightly discriminating.

EE is the way to go at this point. These guys are insane, I can't deal.
Re: Canada Spouse Open Work Permit (sowp)timeline by paparazzi1987(m): 7:03pm On Aug 14, 2017

I pray i don't get this type of response on my wife application.

We have applied the third time and praying for positive response. but this link got me confused now:

Re: Canada Spouse Open Work Permit (sowp)timeline by dodoyemi: 7:36pm On Aug 14, 2017
I included all thats in the C14. Maybe they missed it or something. Even in my letter i stated where the NOC B for my occupation can be found. Whoever handled the application missed something.

I used the case specific enquiry to ask for a review stating that i included everything asked.

Eventually, she was able to recieve another call from the CIC after she called them back and it entered voicemail again. They called to confirm her email. She received an email to proceed for medical test. Now, we face a challenge: the data page of her passport was not attached. What do you advise us to do, bearing in mind that the CIC sent the stamped data page of my passport when they asked me to proceed for medical test when I applied for study permit. She does not have all the required IDs with her right now, the only option we are considering is getting the her IDs scanned to her so that she can print and take them along for the test.

Hello Toluwaase,
Congrats on the medical call. I will advise you to go asap for the medical with a print out of the email you received from CIC as well as a photocopy of your passport bio data page. The email should serve as a proof that you've been asked to do your medical. So there is no need to worry or wait for a stamped passport page since you were not sent one. However, if you go for your medical and they refuse to do it for you, then you should contact CIC asap. Keep us updated on how it goes. Best of luck.
